The public procurement process involves the University of the West of England (UWE) contracting with The Equal Group Ltd to provide services related to an Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) audit. The procurement falls under the education and training services industry category. Based at Frenchay Campus in Bristol, UWE seeks to enhance its inclusivity efforts through a comprehensive audit, including strategic consulting and leadership development. This contract, with a start date of 1 October 2024 and an end date of 30 September 2025, was awarded following a tender process and is now in the awarded stage. The main procurement method used was below threshold, with the contract valued at £21,500, grossing £25,800 GBP.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like The Equal Group Ltd, a Birmingham-based company, stand well-poised to compete, providing strategic solutions to enhance institutional inclusivity. Companies with expertise in policy review, strategic consulting, and organisational development can leverage similar opportunities within sub-central government entities looking to bolster their EDI strategies.
